    Are you charting/temping?  How do you know when you are ovulating? If not go to fertilityfreind.com and learn about it.  If you aren't ovulating or you aren't BDing at the right time that is an issue. 

    Also I would ask your bf to get a Semen analysis... just because he is young doesn't mean there couldn't be an issue.

    Check out Fertility Friend, it has great free tutorials to help you with charting and figuring out your cycles.  Unfortunately I have no idea what candle position is, I'm almost afraid to ask. And if you're old enough to make babies, you're certainly old enough to say the word sex, baby dance is just ridiculous.

    Also, proper grammar/punctuation is your friend.
